One of the good things about the weekend is that you have more time to make a good breakfast. It had been a while since I last had pancakes and I was craving them. I had some over overripe bananas in the freezer and I though they would go nicely in the pancakes. I also had some buttermilk in the fridge so it became banana buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup. They turned out pretty good. They were nice and moist and fluffy. I enjoyed the banana flavour of the pancakes. I garnished the pancakes with slices of bananas and some pecans. They were a great way to start off a day on the weekend.

Banana Buttermilk Pancakes

ingredients

1 cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoons sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk

1 egg

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)

2 overripe bananas (mashed)

directions

Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a large bowl.

Mix the buttermilk, egg, butter and bananas in another bowl.

Mix the wet and dry ingredients making sure to not over mix.

Heat a pan and melt a touch of butter in it.

Pour 1/4 cup of the mixture into the pan and heat until the surface starts to bubble and the bottom is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

Flip the pancake and cook the other side until the bottom is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

only three pancakes for a serving? what are you thinking, man!? i have a feeling that a meal involving these pancakes would lead to a)changing into sweatpants, b)taking a nap, or c)all of the above. masterful!

I've always sliced bananas into pancakes, never thought of doing the mash and adding them to the mix - what a great idea. You just opened a new door for me - thanks for that - and they look delicious and all that maple syrup goodness -drool.

Your pancakes are possible the moistest, fluffy, and tender looking on google images. It goes without saying that I will be making them for breakfast tomorrow! I featured pancakes on my humble food site, but they looked nowhere near as good as yours: http://funfoodfeed.com/2012/03/
